NAPOLEON BONAPARTE. Full bust in uniform, head to 
right, military decorations on right breast. Oval, in velvet 
case. 

Size 1% x 42in. 

An exquisite miniature on ivory by Jean Baptiste Tsabey,

of the celebrated David, and became the most fashionable 
artist in Paris, he was liberally patronized by the Emperor 
Napoleon who had been his friend when both were obscure 
citizens; he painted many portraits of the Emperor. The 
one herein described bears all the master touches of the great 


miniaturist, and is perfect, with the exception of a slight 


crack (almost unnoticable) over the face. | 

This identical portrait was presented by Joseph Bonaparte 
to the late Professor Letdy of Philadelphia, who presented tt

affidavit to that effect, signed by Chas. N. Mann, whe in- 
hertted tt from his father’s estate.

Baptiste Jacques Augustin, signed, one of the most dtstin-

so much noted.

Size 2 7-16 x 3 2-16 in. 


An exquisitely painted miniature on Ivory. Artist un- 
known. The name of the artist has been tuscribed on this 
beautiful portrait, but for some reason has been partly erased, 
so much so that tt cannot be deciphered. The miniature ts 
by a masterhand, and the portrait a contemporary one. It 
ws quite likely that the miniature was purloined, and that 
both the portrait and the artist were so well known that the 
guilty party erased the artist's name so as to prevent tdenti- 
fication. 


MARIA LOUISA. ARTIST UNKNOWN. ; 
Maria Louisa, Empress OF FRANCE. Second Wife of 
Napoleon Bonaparte. Full bust, with jeweled bandaround

This truly beautiful and artistic miniature painted on

workmanship of a miniaturist of the highest order.

PoRTRAIT OF A GENTLEMAN. A beautifully executed pastel

The artist of the above pictures, James Sharpless, was 
born in England about 1751 and came to this country in 
1794. The only known works which we have of him, and 
which are unquestionably authentic, ave a collection of small 
portraits in pastel, and are on a thick gray paper, softly 
grained and of a wooly texture, the same as he used in all 
his small portraits. The colored crayons which he used to 
execute the portraits he manufactured himself. He kept 
them finely powdered in small glass cups, and he applied 
them with a camel's har pencil. He usually made a replica 
of each portrait, which he retained for his own use, and this 
personal collection came into the possession of a gentleman 
of Virgixta. Lach one originally had the name of the sub- 
ject attached, but during the Civil War a descendant of the 
owner removed them from his home and many of the names 
were lost. Out of the 130 1n the collection, only 70 of the 
names were preserved. He painted, during his stay in this 
country, many members of the Continental Congress and the

Size 12 x 9% in. 


A beautifully painted portratt of this noted Artist who was 
born at Newport, R. 1., Aug.,1777, and died at Savannah, 
Ga., May, 1807. He was also noted as a miniature painter, 
and his work in this line stands alone. His pre-eminent 
excellence was in coloring, perfect harmony, uimost delicacy, 
and absolute truth combined. This is a beautiful example 
of his workin ol; it was exhibited at the Pennsylvania 
Academy of Tine Arts in 1887, by Col. Frank M. Ettng, 
from whose estate it was inherited. SEE PLATE. 


JAMES CAMPBELL, BY ST. MEMIN. 


49 Portrait oF JAMES CAMPBELL, father of the Noted Lawyer 


James Mason Campbell of Baltimore. Ovigznal crayon 
drawing, by Charles Balthazare Julien Fevret de Saint 
Memin. Framed and glazed. 


This 1s one of the well known life sized portraits drawn 
by the Eminent St. Memin, who came to this country 1% 
1793, where he learned to engrave in New York City. He 
was one of the first to use Cretten’s invention called the 
phystonotracy, a machine by which means he copied the 
human profile accurately. This portrait ts one of the life- 
size series which he produced of prominent men, drawn in: 
crayon on pink paper. The subject drawn, James Campbell, 
was connected with Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney, who 
married into his family, and grandfather to the wite of Col. 
Frank M. Etting. SEE PLATE.

Lire Size Bust Portrait, in oil, of Mrs. Bass Otis, by her 
husband, Bass Otis. 

Bass Otts was born in New England in 1784. Flts 
reputation was gained in painting portraits from life of 
which he executed many of our most noted countrymen. He 
was also noted for executing the first design upon stone in 


this country. These two portraits are probably among the 
best specimens of his art, whilst his technique is a little harsh, 


the management of light and the treatment of the color would 
be hard to surpass. 


Bass Oris. His Original Manuscript Memorandum Book, 
in which he has enumerated many of the portraits of emi- 
nent characters which he painted and the prices he re- 
ceived, and also numerous entries of various engravings 
which he executed, as well as notes on painting and 
directions for his palette. Throughout the book are 
several very clever pen and ink and pencil drawings by 


him, including a group of Caleb Cresson’s Children. The 


work i is of exceeding interest, as it furnishes a chronolog- 
ical index of many paintings which he executed.

Sully’s Portrait of Henry Clay. 


Henry Cray. Life-size Bust Portrait in oil, by Thomas 
Sully. SEE PLATE. 


This 1s probably the finest portrait of Henry Clay ex- 
tant. Tt presents ‘‘ the Star of the West,’ as his admtrers 
called him, at the best period of his life, and ts one of the most 
beautiful of historical portraits. The reproduction will con- 
vey somewhat of an idea of the character of the work. Tt 
1s from the noted Joseph Harrison collection, of this city, 
and it was painted about the same time that the Baldwin por- 
trait was, and which is now hanging in the office of the 
Baldwin Locomotive Works. Both were painted after Sully’s 
return from England, when he was at his best.

and their successors. le painted portraits of all the promt- 
nent personages of the English Court. The portrait in ques- 
tion exhibits him in his best period, and is in an excellent

DURER, ALBRECHT. 


One of the most Eminent of Early Masters of the German School. 
78 Tue Divine (Christ Crowned with Thorns). 
| Size 14 x 10% in. 


This painting is attributed to Albrecht Durer who was 
born at Nuremburg, 1471, and died 1528. In 1856 it was 
submitted to Sir Thomas Baring, the great English collector 
and expert for his opinion, he submiticd tt to the commts- 
stoners of the Royal Gallery, two of whom thought tt was by 
Durer, two expressed the opinion that it was painted by 
Morales (called the Divine), and one would not express an 
opinion. It was then taken to Mr. Woodburn, the noted 
English expert and connoisseur, who unhesitatingly pro- 
nounced tt to be a painting by Albrecht Durer. 


This ts all the information we can impart. In my judg- 
ment I should say that it was painted by Durer. No matter 
who painted tt, 11 1s certainly a wonderful work of art; about 
two-thirds life size. Lt depicts the head of our Lord crowned 
with thorns, all the agony and suffering he underwent in 
this most trying episode of his life ts expressed in the face, 
the tears bronght forth by the intense suffering, caused by 
the crown of thorns piercing his flesh are so perfectly painted 
as to impress upon the onlooker, that they are actually flow- 
ing down the face, as also the blood issuing from the wounds 
of the thorns, the features portray the face of our beloved 
Saviour in manner never before or since attempted by any 
other artist. In fact, the painting is so supremely divine 
that one feels bettcr after viewing tt. A sort of hallo sur- 
rounds its every touch. We can only advice our patrons te 
call and view 2.

157  ELizABETH CHAMBERS, wife of James Claypoole Copper. 
Life-size bust portrait, by Rembrandt Peale. 

The above two portraits are unusually fine specimens of 
Rembrandt Peale’s best work. That of James Claypoole 
Copper was an experiment of the artist, the colors being 
mixed with wax, and painted in the evening, which makes 
this particular portrait of unusual interest.
